Re: Best HD Camera for 4:3 NTSC Protection
by Del Holford on Apr 26, 2007 at 6:25:49 pm

The best camera for field work has always been an Arriflex or Aaton 35mm camera. HD video cameras cost less to purchase and hold a longer load. If the production will never ever be HD the best camera might be the Ikegami HL-59 with a DVC Pro 50 deck or the Sony DVW-970 Digital Betacam. Since the end user is a cable network using CCIR-601 footage, 24p shouldn't be necessary.

We shoot with both the Ike HL-59 and a Sony HDW-700 and after downconversion of the HDCam vs. the original DVC Pro50 footage one would be hard pressed to tell the difference watching it over a cable system.
